    About the Business

    The BMO Harris Bradley Center, in Milwaukee, Wis., was built through the generosity of the late Jane Bradley Pettit in memory of her father, Harry Lynde Bradley, co-founder and chairman of the Allen-Bradley Company (now Rockwell Automation). The Center is the only major, public assembly facility in North America with construction underwritten through the philanthropy of a single family. Opened in 1988, the BMO Harris Bradley Center is home to the NBA Milwaukee Bucks and the Marquette Golden Eagles NCAA men's basketball team. It hosts an estimated 1.5 million people each year and continues to be the No. 1 entertainment destination in Downtown Milwaukee. The Center - celebrating its 30th and final season - will close its doors for good in summer 2018 when the new Milwaukee Bucks arena opens.…

      On the eve of the Bucks' last regular season game at the Bradley Center, I pour out a little of my Miller High Life for this 20-year old building that has been home to the Bucks, and many concerts. The Bradley Center is old, seating is tight and steep at the top, and it's time to say goodbye to the past and hello to a bright new building.

      I've seen a ton of concerts here from Rush to Van Halen (Van Hagar) to Keith Urban, Hall and Oates, Tears for Fears, Bucks games, and Milwaukee Admiral Games, and a live orchestra playing along to Star Wars with the real C3PO actor emceeing. My son and I saw the penultimate Bucks game in this building and didn't really realize it 'til midgame that we would never see another game in the building. Happy Trails, Bradley Center!

      Came here to watch flat track racing and it was fun. As most arenas go, their drink princes were high, about $9-12 for 16oz of beer. At least they offer craft beer here for a couple of dollars more than the Miller or Coors. They also have $5 bottled water and offer some food items. I was able to bring an empty bottle in my purse and just filled it at one of the water fountains.

      There's a parking garage at the center that costed about $25, but I use SpotHero to find cheaper parking a few blocks away. We found a spot in another garage for $5.

      As many have mentioned, it's an old building.

      That said, I'm happy to have been able to see a Bucks game here before they move to their larger, more modern digs next door.

      Our seating was in the upper section, but we were able to see the game without a problem (didn't feel like we needed to constantly watch the jumbotron or anything). The seats were comfortable enough (nice that they were padded).

      Parking was easy enough. We were able to find a spot a couple blocks away. They have pay parking, which we didn't make use of. I think it's roughly $25 on game nights ($20 if you purchase in advance).

      We didn't partake in any of the food, but there were offerings on each level (appeared to be the usual stadium food fare).

      All in all, definitely can see why they're building the new arena.

      That said?

      Live basketball is a blast to watch--even in an older center!

      I am happy to say that I have seen one of the last games @ the Bradley Center as I got to see the Milwaukee Bucks get a playoff victory against the Boston Celtics in Game 3 with a Giannis Antetekoumpo last second tip in FTW!!!!

      Me and my boys had good seats and got to watch with some serious Bucks fans. We even got a free Fear The Deer t-shirt because it was the playoffs. You can tell this stadium is quite seasoned as seats were very tight, but mildly comfy. Chicken tenders and fries were good and the beer selection in the arena is stellar as I had a Blue Moon and a local IPA.

      A new arena is being built next door and I am looking forward to trekking it up to the Mil to catch another Bucks game!

      A somewhat dated venue, hence the brand new arena going up right next door. I have attended many Bucks, Admirals, Warriors (fine Golden Eagles) games & concerts at the Bradley Center. It's generally easy enough to find affordable tickets to get into the majority of events.

      There's nothing special about the food. Typical arena/stadium fare with the overpriced items you come to expect. Where don't you pay $7.75 for a single cup of soda? I'm sure they try for a little variety but it's the same general deep fried offerings.

      Really not a bad seat in the building although I've always expected to see someone rolling down the steps in the 400 section. Almost like climbing a ladder.

      The B.C. was great for its time and that time has almost come to an end. It's not like they're replacing historic Lambeau Field. I look forward to a few final events and am eager to see what the new facility has to offer besides higher prices.

      One of the old arenas that's about to go to the way-side! I could never leave my opinion on the fact of this older arena being replaced since I'm not one of the regular attendees. The seating is a bit steep in the upper level, but the sight lines aren't awful either. Home of the Milwaukee Bucks and Marquette University!

      This review is written by a Marquette Mens basketball fan who loves to see her team battle in the barn this final season before the team transfers to the new arena next door.

      There's a lot of excitement, energy and fun at these games and clearly there's momentum building. MU's team is young but man they definitely have drive. Recently I attended the MU - Purdue game and gosh it was fun to watch. Purdue was a more experienced team and that was obvious on the court but there's something fun and exciting about watching the energy and spirit of MU's team.

      Don't forget the sidelines entertainment, the flamethrowers that take the start of the game to new extremes, the student cheerleaders and pom poms, the women's dance team, the videos of the players that add a great element of fun and energy, and the bonus of $2 beers, sodas, hotdogs and nachos at Tuesday night games.

      C'mon. It's the last season in the barn. Take your place among the history of the Bradley Center and get here to enjoy a game - while you still can!

      Look!  Its Marquette vs. Purdue!

      I've been here a few times to view Marquette basketball.

      This facility is clean and has plenty of room. There are areas with high tables near the beverages and food. One time I was here, a student was hitting on me asking was year I was. I was tempted to say a senior but had to just laugh since I have 2 boys who are Marquette students.

      The food isn't too pricey. I paid $7 for a piece of pizza, $5 for a bottle of water and beer was $8-12 depending on the size.

      The seats are nice here, you aren't too cramped and there are escalators to help you get upstairs/downstairs.

      Actually my biggest complaint about this place is the size of the restrooms. Waiting in line took awhile. I did have to tell a girl to focus as she was pretty involved in a conversation and holding up the line. There are not enough stalls, sinks and paper towels. It's a big facility people! Come on!

      Building is starting to show its age. Seats are very tight and steep in the upper bowl. I suppose the new arena will make this seem even older.

      Some ok food choices but mostly greasy smell.

      Not enough craft beer choices.

      Positives: bucks and admirals

      My wife and I visit here often for basketball games and they take good care of us here. The food is stadium food but some vendors sell healthy options.

      And the food isn't cheap. Bottled water - $5, and it goes up from there.

      Once I flew in from Dallas and I still had my luggage with me. They held it for me so I could watch the game! Awesome
